Why Deploy Six Sigma?

Why Deploy Six Sigma in your organization?
Here are some reasons why we should be using Six Sigma to make process improvements:
a) It is a structured approach – if we follow the process, people will not forget any important steps along the way before they implement the solution.
b) It helps quantify the benefits and thus make it easier to sell the improvements to senior managers in the company.
c) It uses facts & data and the rigor of statistical testing to arrive at the right root cause instead of fixing symptoms or putting band-aids.
d) There is a greater likelihood of the solution being sustainable if we follow the Six Sigma process.
e) Six Sigma focuses of solving the right problems using the project selection matrix.
f) It has proven itself in a large number of deployments. Frankly, there is no better tool out there to make process improvements – especially when the root cause or the solution is not known.
